Agree, let's all respect the judges' decisions, they're the experts
Indeed. What I mean is it's an expert opinion, made with the intention, we hope, to avoid bias. I also think they make a concerted effort not to shun popular titles and genres - unlike many big award shows.
I don't know why people don't notice the way Suzy has improved her acting skills through every drama she has done…
Agree. Every drama thus far has been her best work to date. Director's cut of Anna was super. Jung Eun-chae also nominated for her phenomenal heiress. Highly recommended.
So pretty. She's been doing quite a few baddies recently, very scary - therefore successful - and a pure delight to watch. In her Jung-E cameo I felt she borrowed something from Jung Eun-chae's magnificent heiress in Anna.
A scrappy film. A 5 minute short story dragged to 100+ minutes. The sort of thing that's produced when your boss says "we've got some air time to fill, make a 2 hour ghost movie, here's $100 for your lunch money." Must say I feel a bit conned, Viki didn't state this was a KBS drama special - although I had my doubts when it started rolling.
The news is that it's going to be worse than part 1, and even worse than part 2. They've already ruined part 1 with this, so might as well go for broke. It's a bit like artistic suicide, pure profit generation, nothing more.
The title of the article is badly worded. 'Hold' as in pause? Seems it's supposed to mean 'keep' or 'have'? Should be, simply:『Park Eun Bin's K-drama "Diva of the Deserted Island" to be Broadcast on tvN』without the exclamation mark, what's the exclamation for? A drama site announcement that a drama's going to be on tvN is an exclamation? Don't you think a headline is already a form of exclamation? Network dramas happen all the time, what planet are you on when you ask if it's better to be on tvN or OTT? It's going to be both - like practically every other drama. Also some of the links in the page, like Bae Suji, link to MDL in a different language. And she's not referred to as Miss A's Suzy these days, go and write for Soompi if you can't use the actors' names without putting the pop group first. For example, besides being complicated to read, this sentence is ambiguous: "VIXX's Cha Hak Yeon, Kim Hyo Jin, Kim Joo Heon, and Lee Re"... are these all members of VIXX? Why put VIXX when it's irrelevant in this context, ruins the sentence and already appears in the person's profile? Furthermore, VIXX fans already know who Cha Hak Yeon is, the rest don't give a shit, there's no utility in adding VIXX to the name.
The other one or the other.... thousand? A thousand smug witches and wizards, marvellous. Physics all wrong. Inconsistent characters. Too many characters. Inconsistent powers that vary from scene to scene. Reminded me of those incrementally crap marvel films. If everyone's a witch it sort of homogenises the whole concept. Might as well call it "The Girl". Please don't make another one, there are already 10000 nerds that upload videos of themselves playing shoot-em-up games on their x-boxes, this film's just like them but lighter on narrative and character development, with a worse script.
It's extremely pressurised being in the thick of mid-level stardom, an area that's overcrowded and highly competitive.…
It might just be that there are more eyes on K-pop. His team's eulogy sounded sincere. There's usually more than one factor involved, a series of events at the wrong time when despair has set in, the mind can't process clearly. We don't know why it happened.
It's extremely pressurised being in the thick of mid-level stardom, an area that's overcrowded and highly competitive. Some personalities cope well, all will struggle at times - the popular artistic industry attracts some of the most delicate souls among us who thrive on love, they can get wounded by the brutal nature of it.
Disappointing in a way, but still watchable. There are often similarities between k-dramas, but typically the essences are original. This is not like those, it's a copy of scenes and characters without any essence of its own. I watched episode one. Everything is taken and copied from recent dramas, the likenesses are not coincidental: Why Her, Graceful Family, Artificial City to name three, there must be more, I haven't seen that many. Not a single second was a surprise, I predicted everything before it happened. I only stayed because of the delightful Moon So-ri - even she had to do a carbon copy of the fake tv-drama-youtuber caricatures of late. What else was wrong? Pointless conversations between two characters that state facts they both know just for the sake of plot-splaining. "I had to grease the palm of the mayor"... she knows already, conversations like that just don't exist in the real world. I don't know if I'm being harsh because it's a Netflix drama, but this wouldn't make the air on the TV networks, as usual it's another hollow shell, there's something missing, no heart and soul, no core. Netflix has got Koreans mimicking themselves, art imitating art?
Described on Viki as Thriller & Suspense... it's neither of those things, more like a traumatic social drama. Not very cinematic, small in scope like a TV movie. This story clearly means a lot to the person that wrote it, but it's not a compelling movie.
